Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of an ion by a channel that opens in response to a mechanical stress and when a cyclic nucleotide has been bound by the channel complex or one of its constituent parts. Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of an ion by a channel that opens in response to a mechanical stress. Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel that opens in response to a specific stimulus. Catalysis of the transfer of an ion from one side of a membrane to the other. Catalysis of energy-independent facilitated diffusion, mediated by passage of a specific solute through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel. Stereospecificity is not exhibited but this transport may be specific for a particular molecular species or class of molecules. Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel that opens in response to a mechanical stress. Catalysis of facilitated diffusion of an ion (by an energy-independent process) by passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism. Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of a calcium ion by a channel that opens in response to a mechanical stress in the form of stretching.
